Natural Wonders of the Amazon

Encompassing an incredible 1.4 billion acres (500,000 sq km) and making up more than half of the world’s remaining rainforest, the vast Amazon rainforest is teeming with natural wonders. The sheer size of the Amazon basin – larger than Europe and stretching over 9 countries – is a marvel in itself, but it’s the incredible variety of wildlife that remains the region’s biggest draw card.
